ANGEL'S EGG

What it means

A grimy, egg-shaped virtual pet device labeled “ANGEL'S EGG” displays a monochrome scene of a girl sitting beside an egg, with dark anime-style illustrations around the screen. The joke is the absurd transformation of the bleak, philosophical anime Angel's Egg into a cheerful-looking retro keychain toy, as if its mysterious symbolism could be managed like a Tamagotchi. It can be sent as a reaction to overly serious art becoming a bizarre piece of merchandise or a cursed nostalgic gadget.
